Yes it makes sense to me. What did your puppy look like, if I may ask

Yeah. I've seen a picture of her, and I won't lie, she is very adorable and apparently, she's clingy and cuddly. However, I haven't gotten over my puppy (she died Monday), and I don't know what my mind will think. Essentially, my heart is wanting to love and bond with her, but my brain is refusing. If that makes sense.

Oh, same. My mental health is also shit, but my mom got me into therapy. If they actually bother to even talk to me, unlike my past four therapists.

Good for you! That's a huge step in making mental recoveries, and moving past things that are keeping you from healing ♡

Oh, it's nothing against her, rest assured. I'm just grieving my puppy still. I may get attached to my new dog, I may not. It just depends on me.

@Ari, I appreciate the advice. I have been working with a therapist, but she reduced her hours and I had to switch to one that worked with my schedule. I hope it works out because my mental health hasn't been good lately.

It's not that the choices you've made aren't good choices, they are just your own and not other people's. And a victim mentality will make your brain box yourself in far more than anyone else's decisions will for you :) don't get caught up in that, it won't do you any good

My mom got me a three-legged dog for emotional support and therapy. She's cute and all, but I have no idea if I'll reject her or not. I still want my puppy back. :(

@Ari, it just feels like I have tried to make good choices, but almost all the struggles in my life are from the poor decisions of others.

I'm working on this piece, but I don't like the current result. I feel like something is missing, and the horse and the bg don't blend into one. Any tips on how can I turn this to one piece of art, instead a horse badly pasted on a bg pic, is appreciated.

maybe duplicate the backround, make it the top layer, blur so nothing in it is recognisable [blob of colour] and switch to either overlay or oft light depending on what suits then lower opacity or duplicate

aswell as that try feather selecting some of the backround and blurring a tad

Agree with Scarlett.

Blue the BG a little, then lasso the BG where the horse is galloping and sharpen it. Puts focus more on the horse rather then the BG.

I believe that the face marking is throwing off the piece.
Take the opacity down a bit and allow some of a creamier color to blend with the face. Also, I would take a peachier pink and use it more lightly for the muzzle and lastly, I would use a more jagged select to make it "tougher" and use my smudge tool to smudge little hairs into the marking around the edges

The roan as well is too harsh. It separates the head from the body too much. Try feathering a lot more

blur the background, increase a bit the contrast and play with lighting. maybe a bit of sharpening could help too

Overall, with the things mentioned above,

Its an awkward pose on an awkward background.
The background is using both warm and cool hues and even the more talented artists would struggle to flow this together as set up.

Thank you guys for all the help/advice. I'll work some more on it, or just drop it if it's too hard for me.
